CHICKEN ALA' KING ON PUFF PASTRY SHELL
Truly fit for a King or Queen when served over a puff pastry shell. I devised this recipe years ago when entertaining the girls from the office. Any leftover mildly seasoned chicken can be used for this recipe. I would suggest baking with the skin on for a fuller flavor or use rotisserie chicken. Cook time does not include time for baking puff pastry. Serve with a side fresh fruit, berries or melon slices. Enjoy!
